CARPET FABRIC.

-SIEIEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 418,412, dated December 31, 1889.

Application filed September 14, 1889- Serial 110.323,942. (Specimens.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, JOSEPH J AGGER, of Rifton Glen, in the county of Ulster and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Carpet Fabric, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.'

, The object of the invention is to provide a new and improved fabric to be used as a carpet.

The invention consists of a pile fabric provided with three warp-threads, of which'two bind the filling in the ordinary manner and the third or middle warp-thread passes over the filling, carrying or binding in the pile.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters and figures of reference indicate corresponding paris in all the views.

Figure 1 is a plan view' of the fabric. 'Fig'. 2 is a sectional side elevation of the same, and Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional elevation showing the improvement.

The improved fabric A is provided with three warp-threads B, C, `and D, of which the warp-thread D is the middle one, while the warp-threads C and B are the outer ones and are adapted to bind the iillingE in the usual manner. rlhe pile F is held on some of the filling-threads, and over the iilling-threads carrying the pile passes the middle warpthread D, so that the filling carrying the pile is securely bound in place.

As illustrated in the drawings, the fillingt-hread 6 carries the pile F, and between two iilling-threads 6 are arranged the lilling-threads l and 3, below which are located the filling threads 2 and et, and below each filling-thread 6 is located a filling-thread 5. As shown in Fig. 3, the warp B passes rst over the iill` ing-threads l and 3, and then down and under the filling-thread 5, and then upward over the neXt following threads 1 and 3, and vso on throughout the length of the pattern. The other warp-thread C is passed under the filling-threads 2 and 4, then over the fillingthread 6, down and under the' filling-threads 2 and 4. of the next set of lilling-threads, and so on through t-he length of the design. The middle warp-thread D passes between the filling-threads 1 3 and 2 4, and then passes over the filling-thread G, which carries the pile F, and down again between the next sets of iilling-threads l 3 and 2 4t, as is plainly shown inthe drawings. Thus it will be seen that the additional warp-thread D securely binds the filling-thread carrying the pile in place, in addition to the ordinary binding by the two Warp-threads B and C.l

As shown in Fig. 2, the warp changes alternately after four picks and two picks; but this may be varied, if desired.

Having thus fully7 described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent* 1. Afabric comprising three warp-threads and a filling bound in the usual manner by two of the said warp-threads, and pile carried by some of the filling-threads, which latter are bound by the third or middle warpthread, substantially as shown and described.

2. Asa new article of manufacture, a fabric provided with the usual warp-th reads binding the filling-threads in place, and a third` JOSEPH JAG GER.
